<p>one thing that would be tremendously helpful that I haven't had the time to investigate is a way to set up the book so that we can actually reference sections of code from the docs that is actually getting run and tested in CI, to ensure that we can make changes and edit with confidence that the code still compiles</p>

<p>Regarding presentation -- currently the book is under rust-lang/async-book. Similar to rust-lang/book, but different from rust-wasm/book and rust-cli/book.</p>

<p>There's also a wider conversation happening on whether the domain books should be bundled with <code>rustup doc</code>, and/or how to present them online -- currently the entrypoint for most people would be <a href="https://www.rust-lang.org/learn" target="_blank" title="https://www.rust-lang.org/learn">https://www.rust-lang.org/learn</a></p>

<p>I was thinking that perhaps a good way to get people to contribute / manage the async-book would be if it could live as part of <code>rustasync/book</code>, as a counterpart to <code>rustwasm/book</code> and <code>rust-cli/book</code> (which might get renamed to <code>rustcli/book</code> at some point too).</p>

<p>1) not sure what presentation you had in mind, but I think nmatsakis's suggestion to make it an mdbook was a good one, get a copy hosted, link it from the futures-rs docs as well as potentially the main rust site<br>
2) having a regular checking and creating tracking issues are probably good first steps. does meeting 30 minutes before the main async foundations wg meeting work for you?</p>

<p><span class="user-mention" data-user-id="116009">@nikomatsakis</span> I did not, since currently "async book" was its own topic and I was hoping to notify the people already in this topic</p>

<p>but perhaps "async book" should be made into its own stream</p>

<p>Hi. I was wondering if there is any active work on the async book (<a href="https://rust-lang.github.io/async-book/" title="https://rust-lang.github.io/async-book/">https://rust-lang.github.io/async-book/</a>)? I'm trying to get a bearing if there is any interest in accepting contributions to it.</p>

<p><span class="user-mention" data-user-id="299052">@Carl Fredrik Samson</span> there isn't a lot of active work that I know of, but I think we are interested in contributions</p>

<p>Yeah, I noticed there has been little activity. I made a PR to the chapter about Pin that I perceived as a bit of a confusing concept for many (including myself 6 moths ago) but it's been 4 weeks and very little interest so I thought I'd check before investing more into it.</p>
